EXAMINATIONS AND ASSIGNMENTS

Two or three hour exams, 1 three-hour final exam; frequent homework.

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS and/or COMMENTS

This course has both a strong computational, "applied" flavor and a rigorous "theoretical" component: certain theorems are proved carefully and are then invoked to achieve concrete numerical results. This course is intended to help provide a secure foundation for the study of both mathematics and computer science.
